Nice work deet! I got a couple over the weekend. These are likely my last for the season. It was a hell of a year but it's time to kill some birds. ImageImage

Quack, the drake was done with Rutoleum 2X UltraCover Paint & Primer Colonial Red Satin. After it dried I "dusted" it with plain old Rustoleum Flat Protective Enamel in the darker brown (same color I did the hen's backs in).

For the lighter color on the hens I used the Rustoleum Camouflage in the light brown/beige color.

Both heads were primed with Rustoleum oil-based flat Black Protective Enamil before painting colors. I also used this for the black on the drakes. Primed the bodies over mastic/burlap w/ 2 coats of Kilz.

Picked up enamels at Michael's and made it up as I went for the bill colors.

$10 for a damn F11 and I donated it to a 35"+ pike an hour later.
